Cacophony by DivergentlyYours

Sydney didn't have much, but that was fine with her. She didn't need much. Growing up on the Washington coast in a lonely beach town, working quietly behind the scenes was what she was good at. Living on the beach was much less glamorous than most people imagine. Her home was a beat up old Winnebago that she had shared with her father until he passed. Her father had been a detached parent. He loved his daughter of course, but he was by no means an affectionate man. She had grown up fending for herself, working backstage at a bar that hosted live bands using a fake ID. After the death of her father she saw an ad for a guitar technician for a local Seattle band. A love of rock and roll had been the one thing that her and her dad had in common. Selling everything that she didn't need she packed up her pickup truck and travelled north to the city, leaving the sleepy town in her rear view mirror. She didn't expect to embark on what would become the adventure of a lifetime. For someone who had hardly left the town she grew up in, the opportunity to get paid to travel the country and listen to great music was a dream come true. The band became her family, and life on the road was a perfect fit for her. Chris Cornell instantly became Sydney's best friend in the whole world. They were in love, that was plain as day to anyone who paid attention. Yet, sometimes love isn't as simple as it should be. Sometimes, love hurts.

But she never thought that anything like this would happen. Now, she's in too deep and it may break her beyond repair. Caelan thought things would be easier this way, he thought she could make a life for herself outside of him and settle down with someone who wouldn't be constantly traveling. She deserved someone who could actually be there for her, not only a few months out of the year. Someone who had his life together and could love her to the fullest. Dillon may have left with Caelan for the tour, but he always remained closed to Alex and slowly began to love her over the years. He thought he could put the pieces of her heart back together and fix what his friend destroyed. But he may have damaged her more than anyone else.
